Using a Communications Program

10
You can use a communications program (such as HyperTerminal)
to set the initial IP address for the IF30. After you configure the
IP address, you can continue to use the communications program
to set other parameters or you can use a web browser to complete
the configuration.
To use a communications program, you must have:
• a terminal or PC with an open serial port and the
communications program.
• an RS-232 null-modem cable (P/N 059167). One end of this
cable must be a 9-pin socket connector to connect to the
serial port on the IF30. To order this cable, contact your local
Intermec representative.
Note: If you have Microsoft ActiveSync running on your desktop
PC, you may need to disable ActiveSync to make the serial port
available.
To use a communications program
1 Use the RS-232 null-modem cable to connect the serial port
on the IF30 to a serial port on your PC.
2 Start the communications program and configure the serial
port communications parameters on your PC, and then click
OK. You should configure the serial port communications
parameters to:
Bits per second
Data bits

you apply power.
